Giffords Circus ¡Carpa!

Giffords Circus is a magical vintage village green circus that tours England from the first days of spring to the first glimpse of winter. Giffords is much more than a circus, it’s a magical nod to old fashioned circus with a glamorous twist. They will be at Chiswick House & Gardens 16–27 June.

This year they’re bringing a brand-new show ¡Carpa! The word ¡Carpa! originates from the Spanish word for ‘tent’ and refers to a removable canvas roofed structure used for a travelling theatre, much like a circus. ¡Carpa! was a type of theatre that flourished in the 1920s and 1930s in Mexico and the southwestern states in America.
